About Jeffrey
Jeffrey Franklin is a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) who supports people facing depression, anxiety, stress, relationship struggles, trauma, and low self-esteem. He focuses on listening first and helping each person figure out what changes would feel most useful. Sessions aim to be respectful and nonjudgmental so clients can move at their own pace.
Jeffrey combines body-centered Somatic work with talk-based methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Background and approach
He also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as one option when trauma memories are present. In practice he blends these approaches to match what a person needs rather than following a single formula. People often come to him for issues tied to attachment, abandonment, codependency, or problems with communication.
He also addresses dissociation, fatherhood concerns, impulsivity, loneliness, questions about life purpose, money stress, mood concerns, and social anxiety. The aim is to help people build skills and notice where old patterns keep repeating. With four years of clinical experience, Jeffrey frames sessions around collaboration and real-world steps.
He helps people identify small experiments to try between meetings and checks what is and isn’t working. Conversations are guided by the client’s values and goals, not by jargon. Jeffrey practices in Kansas and offers work in English.

How Somatic and Talk Therapies Translate Online
Somatic Therapy focuses on how the body holds stress and tension. In practice this means noticing bodily sensations, adjusting breath or posture, and using those observations to better understand emotional patterns. It can help when anxiety, trauma, or chronic tension show up as physical symptoms.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches people to notice thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It centers on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values. ACT is often useful for depression, anxiety, and problems around motivation or life purpose.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jeffrey aims to figure this out together with each person based on current needs, goals, and comfort. He combines somatic awareness with ACT or CBT tools when that best fits, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before scheduling. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try somatic practices and cognitive techniques in everyday settings, then bring notes back to sessions for discussion.
